Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a martial art, sport, and lifestyle. Through a strong understanding of positional hierarchy and body mechanics on the ground, it is designed to be the best means of gaining & maintaining control over a
resisting opponent, while exposing opportunities for counter-attackes even against a much larger opponent. No magic. Just mind and body intelligence.

TOTS

Teaching physical literacy skills and BJJ etiquette in a fun and engaging manner with an overarching goal of developing basic proficiency in BJJ specific movements and techniques.

KIDS/YOUTH

Teaching and drilling movements and techniques distinct to BJJ with an emphasis on developing sport specific knowledge, general athleticism and confidence. Additional training will be provided for students wishing to
compete.

Weekly training themes that focus on developing strategies and proficiencies in dealing with the variety of scenarios a BJJ student will find themselves in. Technical refinement is also stressed so as to aid students in
developing a solid foundation to later use as a spring board for building their own unique style/methodology. Mon - Thurs class duration alternates between 1 hr and 1.5 hrs.

NO GI / SUBMISSION GRAPPLING

A form of grappling without the traditional uniform, instead you wear shorts and a rash guard. The flow is often at a faster pace with a very similar technical repertoire to BJJ; however emphasis is placed on proper
handles and different strategies of control due to the inability to grab onto a gi.

OPEN TRAINING (OPN TRN)

This hour (Mon - Thur) is set aside for students who wish to continue to spar or drill after their instructional class finishes.

OPEN MAT

Similar to Open Training, this time on the weekends is dedicated to students who wish to further develop their BJJ. Students usually focus on individual or partner drills with the majority just using the time to get in
additional sparing rounds. A blackbelt is also always present to answer questions and provide guidance.

BLACK BELT INSTRUCTORS

Hoss Zahiri (Owner/ Head Instructor)

Rank: Black Belt (Professor)
Lineage: Kyle Cardinal —> Rodrigo Munduruca —> Royler Gracie —> Helio Gracie
Start: April 2005
Style/approach: My teaching philosophy consists of instilling the core concepts and techniques of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in beginners to ensure they develop a strong foundation. From there new learners can
develop their own unique styles and approaches. For novice and more advanced practitioners, I like to work on enforcing technical proficiency as well as developing an attack-style mentality. This includes attacking from both
top and bottom positions, as well as focusing on the principles of base, balance, posture and leverage.
Why did you start? From the moment I first grappled with my brother, I was hooked. I became passionate about mastering this sport and becoming the best I could be. What especially appealed to me about
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was the knowledge that through skill and training I could defend myself from vulnerable positions against much larger and stronger individuals.
What keeps you going? The lifestyle and cerebral nature of jiu-jitsu keeps pushing me to keep training and sparked my interest in teaching. I love how this sport provides me also with an opportunity to
constantly meet new people and build a community based on a common interest. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is more than just a martial art. If you choose to adopt the lifestyle and principles, it can encompass and change your life for
the better.
Environment/Vision:The vision behind starting Bairro 124 was to create a team and community environment that was open and accessible to a variety of different people. Whether you are a parent looking to get
your child/youth introduced to an active lifestyle, a “9 to 5er” looking for a change of routine, or an athlete desiring competition, Bairro 124’s environment can be geared towards accomplishing your goals.

Kyle Cardinal

Rank: Black belt 3rd degree
Lineage: Rodrigo Munduruca —> Royler Gracie—> Helio Gracie
Start: January 4 1994
Style/approach: My style involves a strong focus on attacking and forward movement with an aggressive tempo, style, and expectation. I like to go hard, slow down to perfect technique, and add in lots of
rolling and run run run.
Why did you start? I boxed for 15 years and then saw Royce Gracie in UFC. After boxing I really took the time to find a different style of martial arts before moving into Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
What keeps you going? I never think about giving up and quitting never enters my mind.

Tarik Bramwell

Rank: Black belt 1st degree
Lineage: Kyle Cardinal —>Rodrigo Munduruca —> Royler Gracie—> Helio Gracie
Start: 2002
Style/approach: I try treat every fight like I’m in a tournament: stay tight and every great roll should end with being exhausted. I like to teach based on how I was taught, with some personal and subtle
refinements added in. I think it is very important to teach the basics, because that is what you will always fall back on when you are exhausted. I encourage students to figure out three or so things they are excellent at and
drill these techniques even when they are rolling. To improve my teaching, I research other forms of people’s styles to learn to anticipate counter moves as well as tighten up my own key moves. My advice: don’t try to emulate
everything others do. Also, only use strength when it is needed.
Why did you start? I worked out at the gym for years and got to a point that the weight training just seemed like a building block for something else. Then I found BJJ. I also wrestled with friends and always
seemed to win so we started a fight club in a buddy’s basement. People started to take BJJ classes but would never share the information with me for fear I would get an advantage over them. When heard about a teacher named
Kyle Cardinal, I knew he would provide the type of training and mentorship I needed, and I have been training under him ever since.
What keeps you going? BJJ has become more just being a sport to test my mental and physical state. It has now become my chosen lifestyle.
